Free Concert. Free Parking. Appropriate for all ages.
Veterans Memorial Auditorium 4117 Overland Avenue Culver City, CA 90230
From the joyous rhythms of “Bouncing Kangaroo” to the mysterious melodies of “Wondrous Whale” to the hair-raising harmonies of “Brilliant Bat,” the nearly two dozen movements of Wild Symphony correspond to an animal featured in the picture book.
Westside Youth Orchestra is the first in California to perform "Wild Symphony.” The performance will include narrator and animal images projected on a large screen behind the orchestra. Dan Brown wrote the book and music specifically for a young audience to inspire them to attend live classical concerts.
Conductor and Music Director Lowell Crystal
